Jenna Elfman Joins ABC’s ‘Shifting Gears’ In Return To Multi-Camera Comedy
deadline.comEXCLUSIVE: Jenna Elfman, best known for her starring role in the 1997 ABC sitcom Dharma & Greg, is returning to the network with a recurring role on another multi-camera comedy series, the upcoming Shifting Gears, headlined by fellow ABC sitcom star Tim Allen.
It is produced by the same studio, 20th Television. Shifting Gears stars Tim Allen as Matt, the stubborn, widowed owner of Parker Customs, a classic car restoration shop.
When Matt’s estranged daughter (Kat Dennings) and her kids move into his house, the real restoration begins. Elfman will play Eve Drake, a spirited choreographer and owner of the dance studio across from Parker Customs.
